It's after Valentine's Day, things are a little rocky between Risa and Otani after their little incident of her throwing her chocolates at Otani's forehead, which leave a mark. That's where things get a bit interesting when Umibouzu's brought up and Otani's sick.

Are you At-chan's girlfriend?!

heh... not much to mention apart from the actual kiss witch turned out to be... "not actual"... meh. There were some funny bits here and there, but overall it was disappointing.

Still, the next ep looks promising again with that new character... I wonder how will Otani react now.

Episode reminded me of Hunter x Hunter whenever Risa was emitting Nen from her body. What an awesome sound!

A-chan was disappointing. His nickname reminded me of Kodocha.

Risa should beat him up more.

Still liked the episode. Will wait for next episode.

So Otani sort of fainted, fell forward and their lips met, right? That's how I thought it happened, was fun to watch. :D

Yay for kiss cure lol.

I think that this ep really is going to start to make things really interesting, him fainting and all totally made things complex and I think that that in itself could have spawned a whole ep, but the thing I hate is when someone out of the blue is introduced and totally makes things more complicated like whats going to happen in the next ep (its kinda obvious the next eps story). Too me its kinda taking the short cut to try and "prove" his has a side to him that likes her.

P.S.- does anyone know if this going to be like the movie? cause if it is I'm out

So.. they didn't kiss? Which is probably why they didn't show it.. hmm.

A-chan! lol, oh risa, I feel so sorry for her, she's just up and down with otani. *sigh*

Can't wait for the next episode! Maity looks like a cutie =D

I don't think it can be considered a kiss, but I do think that their lips sort of met when Otani fell forward. Why would Risa be so shocked afterwards if that wasn't the case. :D

@ cyruz: Perhaps, but I think like Risa mentioned in an earlier episode that she's never been kissed and sure, it may not have been an actual kiss as Otani fainted and just coincidently had his lips touch hers as he fainted, but for her, that was close enough to be a kiss.

@ x0x0: Totally agree with Maity being more handsome in the anime and manga comparing to the live-action movie. I didn't think that the actor who played him at the movie didn't fill the role that well.

That's exactly what I thought!

But what otani really did was... faint. So while he was going down.. his lips touched hers. What made that funny is the next day.. he didn't remember a thing. lol!

It rocks ,, o_O yup yup yup ,, Poor Risa !

I wonder why did he suddenly fanted ..

and why does he remember eating an orange but doesn't remember the kiss

x_X ,, can't wait for # 14 ^^
He broke down with a fever. Risa didn't notice because she was too flustered about the "fact" she had her "first kiss".

How is it that Risa never visited Otani's home all these years!? Otani's family was hilarious though. Seems all too conveniant that he blacked out during their kiss.

Awww, that was adorable. I knew Otani wasn't in his right mind when he kissed her, but somewhere subconsciously he really does have feelings for Risa. When it'll come out I wonder<3

I'm honestly getting slightly annoyed though because of the absence of progression in the romance of this anime. When there's none of the main character's romance, a show really needs to have enough depth with other characters so they can create small side stories that support the main one. I'm a bit disappointed by this, no matter how well executed the show is.
^ A way to solve this problem would be to use a smaller episode count. Sadly, Lovely Complex went for the full 24 and it's obviously gonna start dragging. I just wish it would've been 11 or 12.

I was pretty sure that he had passed out before even being able to kiss her :P

His familly is so crazy xD
That dog barking was so random too. It seemed almost... human :/

Poor Nobuka, Risa is so inconsistent in her determination :P

Seiko is a crossdressing yaoi... This episode pretty much solidified that fact. Not to mention there are like zero mentions of any of the parents in the show, making it a lot less realistic. I mean maybe a line or two as a parent, because this seems like home alone or something of that sort. Otani and Koizumi can stay overnight at a Karaoke bar and the parents don't do anything. It's like they don't exist. There are parents! Theya re just probably really lenient and chill or something.

Now, for this episode, I can't imagine them kissing =D, did their lips actually touch? Or did he breath into her mouth?

If it's not him, she's ruining it herself, but mostly Otani is soooo...ugh.
I expect now much from you Lovely Complex. Let me forgive you with the cutest kiss in anime history, just do it. I deserve it after watching 13 episodes thinking every episode "now it's gonna come".

yeah i was thinking that a while back, but i've gotten used to it.

i really don't understand why people are arguing over whether it was a kiss or not. HE WAS SICK THO lol. i'm sorry but i would have zoomed home and washed m lips with bleach and then drank boiled salt for 3hrs lol.

and i'm coming to this late but i have noticed that the outlines of this show are pretty thick...:/

I just don't get it why all the romantic stuff gets so complicated always in Anime?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?
Now, I never complain about all the lolita scenes I see everywhere, not just in Hentaii, but in every 'normal' Anime, but then we don't get to see a simple innocent kiss?!?!?!?!? WTF?!? WTF?!? WTF?!?
I really have a problem with that!!! Tits, curves, asses, and other stuff I don't care about I don't mind if I see them or not but not to see hugs and kisses in the romantic scenes really annoys me!!!!! Here I've said it!
